7. What kind of study performed to determine that 20 charging stations are needed?A quick look over charging spaces around the country and major cities 8-10 was the MOST at one site and very rare. Normal is two. Most are indoors and monitored by a parking garage service, none are on an urban public street - can you cite examples of other urban public street chargers? or in such high quantity?
Shuster Answer: Currently ten – six will be for “Car Share” EV – Four for public charging.
There will be only 20 b/c of a fire hydrant, and if the appropriate demand for “Car Share” exists, we can expect more of them with 160 First's completed construction, leaving at most 8-10 car sharing spots. If there is a lot of demand for public car charging, there will be more than the 8-10.
WHY CAN’T ADDITIONAL CAR SHARING BE PLACED IN 160 FIRST PARKING GARAGE? OR MOVE ALL INTO PARKING GARAGE., once it is complete?
